Hi and welcome to the Gold and Cork Blog Hop with Tombow USA and DCWV! We have two days full of gorgeous projects. You probably came here from Rachel's blog, but if you happened to stumble across my blog go to the Tombow blog to start! This matchup was a perfect fit for me, as Tombow is my go-to adhesive. I've likely used it in some way on every card or layout I've created. This time I used it to create a party decoration. We throw an Oscar party every year and I wanted to create a decorative banner that I can use for years to come.

Pinwheels are popular right now and I can't get enough of them. Many come pre-made or pre-scored, but I wanted to create my own using this gorgeous assortment of metallic DCWV paper. I started with five pieces of 12x12 Gilded Paper Stack. I cut each piece into 8x12 and 4x12 pieces. I scored the 8x12 piece across the middle at 4 inches. I didn't do this the first time, but it was great help later. I then flipped and scored it every .5 inches.

Next, I folded at the score marks and create a half circle. I glued the pleated sides of one end together with Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue. I added a clip to hold it together while the glue dries.

Then, I took the 4x12 piece, scored it every .5 inches, and created more pleats.

I glued the edges of the smaller piece to the larger piece to complete the pinwheel circle. I clipped both sides together to help it stay while the Tombow glue dried.

To finish the pinwheels, I added more Tombow glue to the center. Here's the five completed pinwheels after the glue had dried.

I added glittery black die cut stars and red foil letters to the center of each pinwheel. I adhered them with Tombow Foam Tape to create dimension. Then, I cut holes in the pinwheels and strung them to ribbon.
